While Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have replaced the traditional paper-based records in most healthcare organizations, the data entry into these systems remains largely manual. Speech recognition technology promises substitution of the more convenient speech-based data entry with currently laborious manual method in the near future. Developing effective Speech Recognition Systems (SRS) requires availability of standardized vocabulary databases. This study aimed at developing a medical speech recognition database for reconstructive hand surgery based on the Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine-Clinical Terms (SNOMEDCT). All codes related to hand problems were extracted from ICD-10. A sample of 2051 diagnosis codes was randomly selected from the patients’ records. The operation report paper sheets were transformed into electronic records. For each ter...

Plants were treated with 5 levels of salt (0.5, 2, 4, 6 and 8 dS m-1) and 4 levels of 24-epibrassinolide solution (0, 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mg L-1). Salinity decreased growth, catalase activity and total protein concentrations and increased superoxide dismutase and peroxidase activities, electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde synthesis. The plant growth, activities of antioxidative enzymes and protein content increased in 24-epibrassinolide-treated plants in comparison with non-treated plants. Leaf cell electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde synthesis reduced by exogenous application of 24-epibrassinolide under saline conditions. Our results suggest that 24-epibrassinolide application under salt stress conditions alters the equilibrium between free radical pr...

Plants were treated with five levels of salt, so that the electrical conductivity (EC) of 0.5 (control), 2, 4, 6 and 8 dS m -1 was established in pots. Then, the plants were sprayed with different concentrations of 24-EBL (0, 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mg l -1). Under salt stress, the plant growth parameters and chlorophyll content decreased, while the total soluble sugars and proline contents considerably increased. However, the application of 24-EBL significantly ameliorated the plant growth by reducing the adverse effects of salinity on the examined parameters. The ion concentrations showed an increase in accumulation of Na + and Cl -coupled with a decrease in K + with increasing salinity in medium. Exogenous application of 24-EBL had a significant effect on leaf Na + , K + , Cl -contents. Out of different 24-EBL concentrations, the effects of 0.5 mg l -1 pro...
